Cara na Mara

Cara na Mara provides a child centred approach to introducing children to sailing and the marine environment.

The syllabus takes an interactive approach to teaching, and encourages children to be responsible for their own learning. Each course in the programme consists of a series of games, tasks, activities and experiments that will help children to discover, explore and practise the skills and knowledge they need, while under the supervision and leadership of an ISA Instructor.

The programme covers the essential sailing skills needed for children to become competent, independent sailors and also includes a strong emphasis on the skills & knowledge that will allow them to appreciate and enjoy the water & outdoor environment.
